Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Studies have shown that in states where race-conscious admissions policies have been banned, there has been a noticeable drop in Black and Latino enrollment rates in colleges and universities. This is because these policies are meant to address historical and current forms of discrimination and provide greater access to underrepresented groups. Without them, these groups are less likely to be admitted to higher education institutions.
